Conclusions
24
SOIL AMENDMENT PRACTICES Biochar treatment DID NOT significantly increase tree
survival & growth relative to standard soil ripping techniques without amendments
PLANT SELECTION Phyto-recurrent selection is a viable tool for selecting
superior genotypes P. nigra × P. suaveolens subsp. maximowiczii ‘NM’
performances were superior to all other genomic groups
